Kids Fishing Day

July 10, 2010

As part of the Ontario family fishing events from July 3-11, 2010, the town of osgoode held their annual "kids fishing day". this kids enjoyed themselves and even got free fishing rods, worms, and then hot dogs later in the day! we managed to catch a couple of perch, which we brought home, cleaned and cooked up for the kids' supper.

sam is excited and ready to go

while waiting for oma & opa to arrive, sam decided to have fun at the colouring table.

at first sam chose the free tackle box.

then she switched for a rod and bait

only thing left to do is cook them up and eat them!
